I think the deer are getting spoiled...

This is the deer we have named Sascha. She is the one that comes running when she hears food. One morning she actually blocked the driveway and wouldn't move for the car. She just stood there and looked at me as if to say "your not leaving until you fill my dish!".

She's ALIVE!!!

Make sure you're volume is on to fully appreciate this video :)

After much work Chris has been able to determine that the motor that came in the Bronco runs. And she sound great.

My pretty cabinet doors!

I decided my cupboard doors above my torch were too plain, so my mom painted a beautiful winter tree scene with the Northern Lights in the back ground - aren't they gorgeous?

So now I have just a few little touches to do to my studio and it will be perfect. I am getting a new oxygen concentrator next week, as mine is gasping on it's last breath (literally!).

Meghan as Bella??

I think she'd definitely do it, but who would she choose? Edward or Jacob? Only Meghan knows and I'm sure she's not going to tell us!

I got new flooring!

Not exactly our "plan" for the weekend (especially for poor Chris). But I got a good deal on it and I was getting tired of looking at my plywood floor.

So, we had to move almost all my stuff into the backyard.

This is my ugly old floor - yuck!

This is it when it was almost done. We managed to get it done in 4 hours - not bad. Now we have to run to town tomorrow to get the molding and I can start putting everything back together. Except I'm going to stain my work-bench, I have been planning on doing it and I might as well as long as everything is all torn apart.

Stormy Weather Canoeing!

I like to take the canoe out in the early evening because all the animals seem to be out at that time and there usually isn't anyone else on the river. We've seen deer, owls, blue heron, otters, beavers, pine martens, osprey, hawks and more. Last night we took the canoe out at about 6:30 and we saw about 6 baby deer up at different places. But, about an hour into the 2 hour paddle it started to thunder and lightening. So, we paddled rather quickly and made it an hour and a half paddle!

You can see the stormy sky. By the time we got the canoe out the winds were making waves in the river and the sky was dark and it was rumbling with thunder. We got out just in time!

Towel Warmer??

Went to get a clean towel out of the dryer this morning... It was nice and warm, but not from the dryer heat! Crazy cat. Luckily I didn't just shut the door and turn it on to fluff them up!
